There is little difference between potential Conservative and Labour voters with 75% and 76% respectively saying they have definitely decided who they’ll vote for.

Despite May leading Corbyn when it comes to who voters think would be the most capable prime minister, the Tory leader is down six points from two weeks ago.

Half said May would be the most capable, while 35% said Corbyn would be - a boost in the Labour leader’s figures by six points compared to last month’s poll.

Gideon Skinner, head of political research at Ipsos MORI, said: “Here’s more evidence of the Conservative’s wobbly week, with Labour improving again and the last two weeks of campaigning seeing a big hit to the Prime Minister’s personal ratings.

“But remember this is just a snapshot of a period of time, not a prediction – the Conservative vote share remains high, May is still seen as the most capable PM, and they still have the support of older people.

“Meanwhile, Labour’s support still relies a great deal on younger people, who in the past have proven less likely to vote.”

Yesterday’s survey came a day after YouGov made a shock prediction that the Prime Minister could fall 16 seats short of an overall majority.

In today’s Ipsos MORI poll the Prime Minister was still ahead of Corbyn when it came to leadership satisfaction ratings, however her numbers are much lower than seen in Ipsos MORI’s last poll two weeks ago.

May dropped 12 points to 43% when voters were asked whether they were satisfied with her doing her job. Half said they were dissatisfied.
